AnonD-289600, 05 Sep 2014sir Tomazz, I had searched and read about kitkat, and what ... moreyou can still write to SD card, but only to the designated folders of the programs.
So if camera makes a folder DCIM on SD card, it can still write photos and videos to it.
The Gallery can still READ from that folder, but trouble would be if you use a 3rd party gallery app, and you wanted to EDIT the photo - it could not be saved to same folder, possibly it could be saved to that software's folder, though.
If you copy files from your computer to the SD card, the phone apps can still READ them, but can't modify them or delete them, if they are not in folders these apps created themselves.

When you just create the account and enter PlayStore, for some reason all the downloads fail.
Normally on reboot of phone that gets sorted out.
Not sure it's about reboot or it takes some time to add phone's ID to the account on Google servers...

But some apps are throwing the files all over the place, or need to access and write them everywhere, so that could be an issue for 3rd party apps. But not those that came installed with the phone.
I suggest you google up the differences between JellyBean and KitKat on the SD card handling, and make your own conclusion.

After checking the system update it showed a 35.69... morePersonally I'd download full 1.17.40 from Asus site or my site first.
That 675 MB file will include all the previous patches.
Once you install that, get 1.18 update, as there were quite serious fixes in the previous versions that you would skip by updating to 1.18 directly.

You can only make video call over VoIP apps that support video calls, like Skype, Viber, Line… They use data package (or Wifi), not operator video call facility.

AnonD-288293, 04 Sep 2014Should I buy bumper case or nillkin case for my zenfone 5?
... moreDon't know which ones you're talking about, but I've had a few "knockoff" no name covers, which were terrible, and then discovered Nillkin. It fits like a glove, and is seems made from good materials.
Therefore I'd give a vote for Nillkin, but you might be happy with others as well.
